The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Imo State has commended Imolites for their massive turnout and the warm reception accorded the party’s leadership during the presidential campaign rally held in the state at the weekend.
In a statement issued through its State Publicity Secretary, Collins Opuruzor, remarked that the unprecedented overwhelming mammoth crowd that came out to receive the presidential candidate of the PDP, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, is a reconfirmation of the collective and unyielding decision of Imo people to vote PDP come 2023.
While thanking Imo people for the sincere outpour of love and support for the PDP, its presidential candidate and the state, Opuruzor said “it is an index of a victory already sealed.”
According to him, the aspirations of Imo people for a Nigeria that works for all, safe and secure, fair and just, and brimming with limitless opportunities shall come to fruition with Alhaji Atiku Abubakar as President.
“Imo PDP is proud that, by all indices and indicators, Nigeria recorded the highest rate of economic growth since Independence between 1999 and 2007. That was the era of the PDP. And that was when Alhaji Atiku Abubakar was Vice President of Nigeria. He supervised the economy and coordinated the private sector to make that happen. He will not learn on the job. It is about the experience, not experimentation.
“Imo people are enterprising. They need an enabling environment where businesses can thrive. It is exhilarating that our presidential candidate has vowed to revamp the commercial sector and unleash the entrepreneurial spirit of our people. He has pledged to support businesses with 10 Billion US Dollars when elected.

“And by restructuring the country and devolving powers to the federating units, all parts of Nigeria will realize their full potential, and Nigerians can live their dreams anywhere in the country.
“Alhaji Atiku Abubakar is the unifier that Nigeria needs now that our nation has been divided along ethnic and religious fault lines. He is detribalized and he is the symbol of national unity. He understands Nigeria, respects all parts of the country and accommodates everyone irrespective of tribe or tongue.
“Nwanne Di Na Mba 1 of Ngor Okpala is his chieftaincy title. He got it from Imo State, and it was his first title in Igboland. Chief Atiku is not just a brother to Imo people, he is a stakeholder in Imo State. His victory shall be a victory for Imo people whom he genuinely and eternally loves and treats as his brothers and sisters,” Opuruzor said.
The Imo PDP used the occasion to enjoin Imo people to keep faith with PDP and turn out en masse on February 25th, 2023 to vote for PDP, so as to give Nigeria the right leadership that will ultimately usher in a new dawn in governance.
